There is a well-known vendor in the maker/DIY community (it even carries Adafruit products) which I am concerned may be unknowingly selling a counterfeit. Most reputable stores have it for $90 to $110 -- $100 on this site: https://www.adafruit.com/products/468
Finding it for $61.49 just seems Too Good To Be True.
I know that this is open source hardware, but the pics have Seeed Studio.

Allegations should not be made without proof.

Please learn the meaning of the word "allegation". I have not made one.
Regardless, I have not mentioned the name of the site which is selling the very cheap 'scope, nor am I making the slightest accusation of dishonesty.
Given the fact that the item is 30% lower than anywhere else, I am asking a reasonable question.
